Not the Zigfield Follies - Magpie #75

It aint the Zigfield Follies

It aint Cirque De Sole

It aint the The Black n White Mistrals

In burlesque style, it's risque

There are men in tigerprint lap laps

Walking on needles & spikes

There are girls singing the songs of the sirens

Whilst peddling topless on bikes

It's a feast for the senses

It's a show to be seen

So if it tickles your fancy

It's starts July sixteen

A Day At Dreamworld!

Isn't he just gorgeous, so fluffy & cuddly looking

What a sleepy head...didn't open his eyes for the whole time

I stopped to watch him.

My youngest son Matt with Jacky Legs, one of the many

Dreamworld Kangaroos

Three little ducks
This is the Australian Emu

Show some decorum ... how rude, I walked by and he flashed me

Cheeky bugger!

Peek-a-boo I see you ... says the little koala as he peeks out his Mothers pouch... so cute!

A nice ole lazy day for Mr Dingo

Meet our Fluffy Family Member!

This is our super chillaxed furry family member, Kira

As he is today

One of his first baby photos.... isn't he gorgeous!

He here is as a curious little toddler


Going out for a ride with The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Where am I?

Who's a naughty boy ?

Foundations

Come in for a while

Take time, look around

I'm a unique kind of construction

No others like me to be found

I'm forever changing

Inside and out

I'm always changing appearance

Of this theres no doubt

My foundations are sturdy

This is a fact

Thanks to the love a woman

Whom raised me like that

I have many flaws

Can't be perfect you know!

Though I know how to nurture

And like to help others grow

If life is the building

Then mines only half done

I'm still under construction

But that's half the fun

Good mornig, good morning

Just Be!

This week went by in the blink of an eye! Some weeks are just like that, they're so busy that it's can be hard to catch your breathe & really relax. Tonight though, I can! I can just sit here on my patooty, all alone, I don't have to rush anywhere or do anything. I can sit here in my jim-jams, with my fluffy slippers on and do nothing. There is something about this scenario that is truly wonderful & very much needed.

Sometimes it is nice to just - Be!

Be in the moment
Be silent
Be rested
Be contented
Be alone

Yep, Just Be!

So I raise my glass of Bailey's & say cheers!! Cheers to Me!

Tee! Hee! Hee!


Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Mapie Tales #73 - A Day At the Shore

With their swimming trunks on

They head for the shore

With a picnic packed for the day

They took shovels & spades

To make fun for the day

They swam & they jumped in the waves

The people from Chilmark

Of Martha's Vineyard

They really new how to have fun

They spent the whole day

In the very best way

Having fun as they played in the sun

Kiss Me!

Kiss me in the stairwell

Kiss me in the hall

Kiss me behind the tuckshop

Kiss me behind the wall

Kiss me in the morning

Kiss me in the night

Kiss me by the fountain

Kiss me to end a fight

Kiss me when I'm sleeping

Kiss me when I wake

Kiss me when I'm sad & sick

Kiss me for goodness sake

Kiss me upon a mountain

Kiss me by the sea

Kiss me in the forest

Kiss me under the gumtree

Kiss me slow and gentle

Kiss me on the run

Kiss me on my eye lids

Kissing lot's of fun.

Just Kiss Me!

A Way with Words!

He has a way about him

The words that he weaves have impact

They float like a feather falling gently from the trees

& settle gently on my skin

They dance across the page in a rythmical display

that causes me to dance within

They sear into my heart like a lovers dagger

& cause my heart to ache

They creep under my skin and move in there

causing my body to react

His way with words

Awakens my senses

&

I come alive inside

Through Iron Barred Windows - Magpie Tales 72

The Wheat Field by Vincent Van Gogh

The golden stems they stood up tall

The sun was rising in the east
The morning breeze caused the wheat to dance
Creating a visual feast

His asylum cell was cold & dark
He was a prisoner trapped within
But through the iron barred window frame
His creativity would begin

His eyes and immagination
Would take a journey beyond that cell
Then colours would dance on canvass
Transporting him from his hell

Take a Moment & Think!

Come put on my shoes

Spend a while in my head

Come see what's inside me

Learn of things that I've not said

You don't know my story

You don't know why I cry

You don't why I can't sleep

Why I struggle to try

You've not walked in my footsteps

You've not experienced my pain

You've not had forced hands upon you

Damaging your brain

You stand there and stare at me

With your judegmental eyes

You see what you want to

But what you see is lies

In truth I'm a person

I'm a person like you

Who's innocence was stolen

By someone I knew

They were meant to have loved me

They should have taught me right & wrong

They were meant to protect me

Instead I was abused my childhood long

Now I hear voices

They reside in my head

They tell me I'm nothing

That I'd be better off dead

I am working so hard

To get the life I deserve

But the journeys a rough one

There's just so many curves

So next time when you see me

Please don't judge what you see

Just pause for a moment

Ponder what my story may be!

By KMF

I wrote this to encourage people to alter or at least question how they think. I ask them to make a concious efffort not to make assumptions & judge others.

Please take a moment to remember that every living person has a story and sometimes those storied are filled with darkness and gloom. It is something that a majority of us would struggle even to imagine.

So next time:

When you see that man walking down the street with shabby clothes & a dirty face please don't laugh. (He may have been abused by a family member since he was 3, his parents may have belted him everyday of his childhood, he may never have had good role modelling to learn life skills from)

Please don't laugh at the lady sitting in the park who is nursing a doll & talking to herself. (She may have lost a baby and suffered a reactive psychosis, she may be enacting the sort of love she never had, she may be role playing the motherhood role that she will never experience)

Or the manic man pacing up & down the mall yelling at someone who isn't there. (He may have been abused by his own father from the age of 12, he may have been repeatedly told he was worthless & would amount to nothing)

There are many reasons why people act they way they do. I've worked with the adults whom were the victims of ongoing sexual abuse and often these alter personalities are the only reason they still exist. They are the survivors of a cruelty that many of us will ever know.

This doesn't just apply to children of abuse but to anyone that may appear different in this world because they all have a unique story.

Bright Star - Official Trailer

I really enjoyed this movie. It was a beautiful , lyrical love story. A feast for the eyes, the heart & the soul. Beautiful!!

Not everyone's cup of tea though says my husband. Too slow!!

"Don't be discouraged by failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, in as much as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid." John Keats

My son shared this video clip with me & I have to say I loved it.
